This is a hearty mac and cheese dish.The added sausage and vegetables make it a winner!Quick and Easy to make. Yet most enjoyable. The entire family will enjoy the change from ordinary mac and cheese!My husband worked for Bob Evans Restaurants, this is one of the recipes from them, slightly adjusted.

This was a good, hearty casserole. We enjoyed all the different veggies in this and it was also quite easy to prepare and was very economical. My family loves cheesey macaroni casseroles and all of the ingredients appealed to us. Unfortunately, I really didn't enjoy the flavor of the sauce as much as I'd expected. The taste of the Dijon mustard was a bit overpowering - I think next time I would reduce the amount to just a few Tablespoonfuls, rather than the whole 1/2 cup called for. Also, the cook time indicates only 25 minutes, but this is only taking into account the baking of the casserole. Browning the meat, cooking the pasta,and cooking the sauce took an additional 25-30 minutes. UPDATE: The recipe has been edited to correct the amount of mustard since this review was first written.

Yummy! Perfect dish for my young toddler. I actually made the recipe smaller because I didn't have enough onion, tomato, ,and cheese for a large batch. I added a lot more cayenne pepper to the dish. Also, the Dijon mustard/cheese mix is different, and I really liked it! I like food with a little kick to it,(so does my daughter!) so I am excited to try it when it comes out of the oven. I was taste testing while making it, and it seemed all good:) Thanks a ton!

To prep and cook everything it took me 30 minutes. I always seem to find short-cuts in recipe directions! First, you can cook the pasta right away in a small pot and let it cool. Then use that same pot for the sauce! The sauce and meat mixture is cooking at the same time, and it does save you a lot of time as well! Before starting any recipe....think about the steps of the recipe in your head first, and usually you'll find shortcuts. It seems to me that most recipes are written for someone who has never multitask-ed in the kitchen before!
